Currently, we've admitted 60 children from six states: Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Jammu & Kashmir. Among them are children who don't even have a home, some who have lost their parents, and children with disabilities. We started the school's construction work just four months ago, on March 25th. At present, only the accommodation for 60 children, classrooms, and canteen facilities have been completed. We hope to gradually complete the remaining work and admit more children in the coming years.
Two years ago, understanding the educational backwardness in the villages of North Indian states, we started the Sukoon Learning Centers. Our aim was to get children into nearby government schools. Through these centers, we've successfully brought back over two thousand children who had dropped out of school into government schools. The Sukoon Residential School was started with the goal of completely taking on a few bright but financially disadvantaged children from these learning centers and providing them with an excellent educational environment. What we've started now in Sudaka, Haryana, is just the first phase of this initiative. We need to complete the current building and soon start a girls residential school. We also need to set up a village school for the rural community.
Statistics show that 31,068 children in Haryana alone dropped out of school this year. In Nuh district, Haryana, where our school operates, only 45% of students passed the higher secondary examination this year. These figures clearly illustrate the educational backwardness in this region. In such a situation, our school has a lot to do. Your support gives me and my colleagues great hope. Your prayers will always be there. Thank you for being with us.
I will share a detailed video once the children's uniforms are ready. We can plan the inauguration ceremony after the building construction is complete.
Thanks!
